Half of Patricia’s winnings will go to a medical clinic in Sierra Leone and the other half to the Westside Pregnancy Clinic.
Patricia says there are only 77 doctors in Sierra Leone.
Patricia: They really need the money, so hopefully your going to give me a real easy question Reege, because if you don’t…
Regis: Because what?
Patricia: Some Sierra Leonans will be knocking at your door.
Regis: Don’t do that. I don’t know what the question is. This is how this works. We’re going to ask you one question.
Patricia: You know I went to Ohio State, right? I don’t know that much.
Regis: Right. You’re a graduate. Wow!
Patricia: Ohio State is a very good school. I just didn’t spend enough time in the classroom. That was the problem.
Patricia starts to shake her head as the question is revealed.
$50K If a euro is worth $1.50, five euros is worth what?
A. Thirty quarters
B. Fifty dimes
C. Seventy nickels
D. Ninety pennies
Before Regis gives the choices:
Patricia: I am so bad at math. And when I get nervous.
Regis: No. But Patricia. Ohio State.
Patricia: That’s what I’m telling you. Exactly my point.
Regis reads the question again and begins giving the choices.
Patricia: I can’t do the math.
Regis: Patricia, just think about ...
Patricia: I put everything on credit cards Regis. I have no idea what this is.
Regis: Thirty quarters would give you how much?
Patricia: I don’t know. I have no idea. I literally – My kids -- once they got past second grade, I could not help them at all with their math.
Regis: Okay, then we got a problem. Let’s cut right to the chase. What lifeline would you like?
Patricia: I need to call my husband. Who’s European.
Regis: Oh my. He’s right down our alley. What’s his name?
Patricia: David Hunt
Regis: All right AT&T. Please. David Hunt on the line immediately.
Patricia reads the question and choices.
David: Sorry, just run through those again.
Patricia reads the question and choices again.
Time expires.
Audience: (aww)
Patricia: I’ll throw in the other $25K.
Audience: (cheering)
Patricia: As long I don’t have to tell you how many nickels it is.
Regis: No. But look. The reality is, you have not given up and you haven’t lost yet.
Patricia: I haven’t. We got a beautiful 25K.
Regis: No sweetheart. We can get $50K, but you just have to think about this.
Patricia: Oh, I can still answer this?
Regis: Yes.
Patricia: Oh, I thought we were done!
Regis: You didn’t say… You don’t lose till you say “final answer.”
Patricia starts to do the math and figures out that five euros is worth $7.50.
Audience: (applause and cheers)
Patricia: It’s not fifty dimes. It’s not ninety pennies. I don’t know.
Regis: Yeah. No. Wait a minute. You know this. Fifty dimes is how much?
Patricia: Fifty cents.
Regis: Fifty dimes.
Patricia: Oh, it’s five dollars.
Regis: There you go. Ninety pennies?
Patricia: (laughs)
Regis: How many pennies make a dollar?
Patricia: A hundred.
Regis: All right. Seventy nickels?
Patricia: This is the worst question you could of asked me.
Regis: Seventy nickels. How many nickels in a dollar?
Patricia: So seven times fifty is $3.50.
Audience: (cheering)
Regis: That leaves thirty quarters. How many quarters in one dollar?
Patricia: All right. I’ll give you my answer.
Audience (laughs & cheers)
